376. NOAM CHOMSKY SPEAKS OUT!

America's outstanding radical intellectual, Chomsky discusses the ideological
war waged by the Reagan administration against the American people,
particularly within the framework of the situations in El Salvador and
Nicaragua. He also evaluates the complicity of the mass media in these
efforts. Chomsky maintains that because of widespread opposition to its
policies, the Reagan administration regarded the US population as enemy
territory, and had to resort to covert operations domestically and
internationally to accomplish its goals. In addition to Chomsky's speech, we
present reviews of books and articles by Chomsky relating to the mass media.
